LOOKING FOR THE CATTLE REPORT?
We've made some changes to the site, but you can still get the Cattle Report in the same place.
Alberta Beef Producers
Over 18,000 producers. One organization.
ABP is at the heart of Alberta’s cattle and beef industry. We work on behalf of more than 18,000 beef cattle producers to maintain the Canadian beef advantage: outstanding genetics; robust food safety, beef grading, animal health and environmental standards; efficient production practices; high standards of animal care; responsible environmental stewardship; and world-class processing facilities that consistently produce safe, nutritious, high quality, and great tasting beef.
